The one who knows her daughter best is Mrs. Yao. During dinner, she noticed that her daughter's mood improved.

Thinking of the letter she handed over, a smile appeared on her face. When the mother and son were walking after dinner, she said, "What did Mr. Huo write to you? Are you so happy?"

"I didn't write anything," Yao Anxin said with a red face, "Just reassurance that he didn't take the rumors outside seriously..."

By the way, he also talked about the attitude of the Huo family.

"Is that so? That's a good thing," said Mrs. Yao. "I was worried that the old lady's affairs would affect your marriage. Now it seems that Mrs. Huo is very wiser than I thought."

However, it is true that if their family can produce a princess in Cheng County, they must be able to do it, otherwise such a good thing would not be their family's turn.

Mrs. Yao asked Yao Anxin to interact with Huo Botao with peace of mind. Since the Huo family meant this, they naturally could not disappoint the Huo family.

We don’t do anything bad, and we don’t have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

What's more, if Old Lady Yao really remarries Prince Chong, it may not be a bad thing. Everything has its disadvantages and advantages.

"Well, what benefits does this matter have for our family?" Yao Anxin asked.

Mrs. Yao chuckled softly: "Your Majesty is now high this year, and several princes are gradually becoming adults. Among them, the princes of Jin are the most popular, but they are also the princes that our family has offended the most. It is also because of him that the nineteenth prince will make things difficult for you, and even did that kind of thing... Do you think, if the prince of Jin takes office, is it a good or a bad thing for our family?"

Yao Anxin didn't say anything because there was no need for an answer.

She will never forget what everyone in the capital said when she was whipped by the 19th prince in the backyard.

Those rumors seemed to have passed, but they left traces in Yao Anxin's heart, making her realize how terrible the four words "people's words are". If the old lady hadn't invited her to a reward and gave her the title of "Qingjun", which was equivalent to the identity of Duke Zhenguo and Duke Fuguo, which would have suppressed everyone's mouths, she would have only been even more embarrassed in the capital.

Then, Princess Cheng personally took action to help her to help the young master of the Huo family.

Yao Anxin is not a three-year-old child. She doesn’t know what’s going on, but the other party is so enthusiastic, it must be profitable. Otherwise, why would a princess from Cheng County fall in love with you?

Yao Anxin didn't know what the old lady did, but she knew that it must be what the old lady did.

Mrs. Yao continued: "At this time, the old lady remarried Prince Chong, and she was the princess. Her reputation was not good, but no matter what, we were also related to the royal family. Prince Chong is still young and he is about the same age as Prince Jin. No matter which prince was in the end, our family should be safer with Prince Chong as a protective umbrella."

This is what Mrs. Yao later figured out. Based on her understanding of the old lady, the old lady is not like a targetless person. So what exactly is it that makes the old lady do such a "absurd" thing?

After thinking about it, Mrs. Yao couldn't think of any other reason besides the pressure from the prince of Jin.

Yao Anxin clenched the handkerchief in her hand: "But if this is the case, wouldn't it drag Prince Chong down from the water?"

"There is nothing to do. Birds die for food, people die for money, and people are selfish. The old lady has things she wants to protect, I have things she wants to protect, and Prince Chong also has... Since everyone has it, it depends on who is better at chess." Mrs. Yao said, "From the current situation, we don't lose or win."

Yao Anxin was in a heavy mood. When she knew that the old count was still alive, the Yao family had a quarrel with the Prince of Jin's Mansion. She had never had a good time after that. Instead, she became more and more fierce. When the trouble came, she almost couldn't get better.

Otherwise, the nineteenth prince would not have come angrily to "whip" her a woman.

She saw the crisis.

If the old lady really sacrificed her reputation and remarried Prince Chong to "resolve" this crisis, then the sacrifice would be a bit too great.

Yao Anxin felt a little distressed and felt wronged for the old lady.

At the same time, some men who hate the Yao family are not good. If her father or second uncle are more good at it, maybe they won’t "sacrifice" the old lady?

When Mrs. Yao saw her daughter's mood falling down again, she sighed softly and touched her head: "I'm just my guess. I didn't dare to tell your father, I don't know what happened. I tell you this, just to tell you that there is no mother who doesn't love her children in this world. For your father, for you and your brother, she is willing to do whatever she does."

"But if there is a better choice, the old lady doesn't have to make such a choice, right?" Yao Anxin raised her head, feeling a little uncomfortable in her eyes. "The old lady is so old, she racks her brains and goes to prison again... Now she has finally made Jinling what she wants, and can retire with peace of mind, but this thing still happened. Mom, why do we keep asking the old lady to 'sacrifice'? She doesn't owe any of us, she should enjoy her old age..."

She wanted to say, which old lady is like their old lady, who is so old that she still has to worry about her descendants at such a big age?

Why is the old lady worried?

Isn’t it because the descendants are not doing well?

If your father and second uncle compete for something, the old lady will not...

"Sister Xin, you're speechless." Mrs. Yao's hand paused in the air, and the expression on her face became serious. "You can't say this kind of thing casually, do you know? Even if your father is not, it's your father... How embarrassed would he be if this is heard in your father's ears? Your father is already very difficult. Do you really think that it's easy for your father to deal with the powerful people in the capital outside now? Even if your father doesn't know the intention of the old lady's actions, is there any difference between the ridicule of others and what you say now? Forget it, others stab your father, you can't stab your father in the knife."

"I didn't mean that, I just..." Yao Anxin wanted to explain. She just felt wronged for the old lady. She really had no other meaning.

"I know," said Mrs. Yao, "so I don't mean to blame you. I just worry that you will make your father angry. You are not young anymore. If the old lady had not delayed these years, you should have gotten married now. After getting married, you are someone else's daughter-in-law, and the water splashed by the married daughter. If you do a wrong step, even if I want to help you, I can't do anything. In order to cultivate you, the old lady has specially raised a opera troupe to tell you about these backyard matters... You should understand that after marrying someone, you will not be you."

Yao Anxin's heart was lingering: "I know, I have figured it out for a long time. Mom, don't worry, I won't love you so much like a woman in the storybook, as if my husband dies without a man. I am Yao Anxin, even if I marry, I am Yao Anxin."

Mrs. Yao opened her mouth and wanted to correct her daughter. When she got married, she would give her husband's surname. She was not the same as "Yao Anxin". She should be called "Mrs. Huo".

But in the end, Mrs. Yao did not say it.
